Abstract
 
 
In the year 1849 Huguier published his remarkable essay entitled: "de l'Esthiomène de la Vulve et du Périnée." Previous to the appearance of this essay every variety of vulvar ulceration had been described under the term of "lupus" irrespective of the cause and nature of the ulceration described. After the publication of Huguier's essay, numerous French and English authors adopted the term of esthiomène and many of them retained the term of lupus concurrently. It is obvious that many writers on the subject understood by both terms merely a process of "ulcerative destruction" and did not intend to point to any definite causation by the choice of name.
